About this property

Lake house getaway on pristine Spofford Lake, New Hampshire

Beautiful cottage on New Hampshire's gorgeous Spofford lake. Perfect for relaxing, swimming, and recreational activities.

The cottage has a deck to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner while overlooking the lake, a grill, dock and platforms to relax and read or soak in the sun, 2 bedrooms (one with a double bed, one with a single and a pull out single), and a sleeping loft (one double bed and 2 singles), and one and a half bathrooms.

Lovely Spofford Lake Spot
Had a lovely time at the house on Spofford Lake - was roomier and cuter than pictures suggested. Deck was a great spot to eat and hang out.

It's all about the lake
Spofford Lake is spectacular..The water is clear and warm and there are only a few power boats so the kayaking (we brought our own) was excellent..we circumnavigated the entire lake..Saw a coupla loons..The view from the outside deck and dock is fabulous..We had some family from the area visit twice and the 3 little ones enjoyed the water immensely..The traffic on North Shore Rd is relatively light so an evening to walk and gawk was very pleasant..There is a 9 hole golf course within a mile but IF you are a golfer I'd recommend the 20 minute drive to Bretwood Golf Course in Keene..Unfortunately, the house itself was a disappointment for the price..The climb down and up from the parking area to the house is, in a word, hazardous..We arrived after a heavy rain and the rocks, hemlock needles and couple of wooden rails were slick..the steepness cries out for stairs..(this was mentioned in the listing).. Read the listing closely..You will NOT see a dishwasher nor a washer and dryer. The coffeemaker is a Keurig - so bring Keurig pods. Not much counter space in the kitchen.. Renters are required to bring their trash to the dump and bring their own linens..The loft would be great for kids - but we opted out of climbing a 10 step wooden ladder placed at an 80 degree angle to watch the only TV in the cottage.. The one and a half bathrooms were clean but poorly lit and underwhelming- one felt unfinished without a towel bar or rack..The marvelous views of the lake from the inside were marred by the condensation and haze that were on the windows that faced the lake..The seal of the double paned windows has been compromised..The BBQ grill had not been cleaned and was a greasy, food crusted mess..The attached propane tank was empty though there was a second tank that I switched over..Overall, a disappointment for the price we paid..IF you are interested in renting this property, you are paying for the lake..

Beautiful views of lake
Stayed for a week in August 2018 Beautiful views of lake from large deck and from the living /dining great room. Bedrooms are nice size, loft is huge. Parking for 4 cars about 15 steps above the house. Be aware that you must bring the garbage and recycling to the town dump about 5 miles away and that they are not open all days of the week. Overall a wonderful location and house.
